How
much is enough - when are we going to finally flush away the garbage
language that means absolutely NOTHING - and begin to return to the
absolute-base-components of who we are and how we live: as in "I'm
Mad as Hell and I'm not going to take this anymore"! (1)
Do we have the stomach for that
kind of honesty? Can we still actually see ourselves doing
that in this environment - under the gun so to speak of today's prisons
into which, with complete
complicity, we have allowed ourselves to be driven? What the hell is
wrong with us as people, that we can let millions of innocent people die
so that we can "maintain our bullshit way of life"? Who exactly
are we that we have the right to destroy so many lives just to maintain a 'lifestyle' that is an obscenity in this world where
three-fourths of the human population is starving or worse? We have the
most corrupt government on
the planet, and what do we do about that: we go to Opening Day of the
baseball season and proceed to get good and drunk, like good Amarrikans
always do whenever we find ourselves faced with an impossible personal
situation. We aren't worth that
thirty-eight cents, the cost of a single bullet, that could end any one of
our miserable lives: Will
this ever change?
After working another fourteen
hour day today - I decided to buy myself a drink to congratulate
me on being WRONG, for a change. Because when I heard yesterday that
Iran had chosen to make an Easter gift of the Brits, that Iran had taken,
over the disputed territorial
waters in the Gulf: I cheered! Because I realized that this stroke of
diplomatic brilliance might just have saved the world the savagery of that
coming attack on Good Friday, as was
promised by the Decider and his thugs: for April
6th at 4 am that would've ended many thousands of lives.
So today there was the shadow of
smile - all day - and thoughts of renewal actually began again, until I
got another message and this all came rushing back - about how we never
intervene in anything that might
have threatened us personally. We watched in the South,
as the blacks were lynched, we watched while the 'outlaws' were
hung in the Wild, Wild West,
just as the 'good citizens' in town after semi-nameless town
watched: while the natives
were paraded though so many places and the 'settlers' heaped
abuse on the same people that
they were stealing land from. Time after time this has happen here: In
the bosom of this land that screams about how free we are, how democratic
we've become - when the exact
opposite is all too true.
We've become fat and lazy, most
of us never have to actually work for what we get a pay-check
for: No sweat is produced, no lasting bodily damage is ever done to those who
still 'work' for a living - it's all a sadistically twisted
little game that's about numbers
and status and class: and nothing else! It's fascinating how people can be
hard at work before 5 am, on
their treadmills while reading the Wall Street Journal. Actually paying
someone else, so they can pretend that they still have a body to 'work on.'
These
same creatures still believe that their government doesn't really lie to
them.
They listen to the
pronouncements-the daily dose of pure propaganda-and then they stand
up and clap like the trained penguins they've become. All exactly alike in
their 'thinking,'
each trying to be the greater dolt, while each one is so concerned, not to
allow any real emotion to
break through the new plastic masks that used to be their very own,
private, and all too human faces.
Each and every day these
pod-people-the same ones that seem to yearn to be machines do
they respond to this stimulus, why by saying "yes Sir" or Thank
you! Many now have decided to
have the RFID tracking devices inserted into their own hated bodies: to insure
that they will never-ever disappear. Fact is they have already
disappeared. They have become
nothing but a set of human organs that continues to seek the mechanical help
of 'modern medicine' or the joys of some bogus drugs that will
supposedly cure them of
whatever has become their common ailment.
We were told all this, as early
as the 1950's: that computers not only would not
free us from our drudgery, but that we would lose not only our jobs but
our super-precious 'identity' to hackers. Did we listen-yes! We heard all about
how
"through the modern miracle of technology, we would all have so much
more 'leisure time' to enjoy
in our glorious retirement years." Those would be the same 'retirement'
years that government is now so busy changing all the rules on, to rob us of
the money that we've spent a lifetime earning.
Did these good little 'Amarrikans'
rebel-of course not, they actually tried to enter into a debate with their
employees (government workers are paid by the public to protect the public)
from unscrupulous scams and government bureaucrats that are out to defraud
the public. So instead of fighting those same thieves and liars that feed
at the public trough: the dumbed down public tries to get the politicians
to actually answer their idiotic pleas for help: at
the same time as the public still completely fails to understand, the true
levels of corruption in the
game. These crooked politicians are the ones that are stealing their
money, their time, their
dreams and in many cases their very lives. How can anyone 'reason' with
people that are this stupid?
When it comes to sending our
loved ones out to fight in wars of aggression, instead of National-Defense-what
do we do? Why we enlist of course, because it's the patriotic thing
to do-without asking any questions about why we went to war, when it might
end, or what will happen if
we become damaged in the wars? We get answers from the recruiters,
who make Elmer Gantry look like a saint: but what we are told turns out to
be lies, lies, and more lies:
geared to produce "War, War, and Lot's More War!" When this fraud
has been exposed, and when people discover that even the death of their
'Johnny, or Mary', is
classified: what do we do then? Sometimes we 'Protest,' which causes those
responsible, to laugh long and hard: Because those people at the top are
the same people that are
served by the death of the public's loved ones. Not in some patriotic
fervor, over the death of yet another soldier, sailor, airman or
marine-no! They're laughing because
it was so easy to suck up all the lives, of so many, that chose to do
their bidding for them: to
basically earn the billions they have reaped, and all in the name of
"Doing Your Duty - to God and Country!"
Some found this 'beyond the pale'
and decided to appeal to the courts. Failing of course,
to do their homework either. The Courts are part of the whole system that is
subject to the US Supreme Court: the same court that has broken the law
several times.
First perhaps in 1871, (2)
when they allowed a corporate-charter to replace the US Constitution,
then again in 1913 when they allowed a group of foreigners to own and
control the printing and
distribution of our money: that's called the Federal Reserve System-this
is neither 'Federal' nor any kind of a Reserve: but it is definitely a 'System' for draining the pockets of most Americans, of what
they worked a lifetime to obtain. (3)
There are at least two sets
of books at the federal level, and by all accounts the USA is and has been
bankrupt, for some time now: all that remains is for the 'appearance' to change: Which will bring an end to all of this
outright theft and treason in a single massive economic collapse.
That's the 'system' to which
unhappy Amarrikans continue to turn to: When the public chooses
to appeal to that same bunch that grew fabulously wealthy from the crimes
which the Supreme Court
committed, in order to reverse themselves and grant the victims solace from
the crimes that the public is still suffering from. It is hardly any
wonder that congress and the
Tarnished House can barely contain themselves-because the sheer scale of
these frauds, quite literally, boggles whatever might be left of those
tiny human 'minds:' For these after
all are 'pod people that so 'believe' in the USA-first, last and
always: all facts to the contrary not withstanding!
When confronted with these
exploding nightmares within the country and the world, how does
the public respond? Right on cue, we take the bait offered by the pundits
- and begin again to 'get
involved' in an election process that is still 20 months away. The 'newspeak' editors make all of it sound as if the decisions will
be made tomorrow, or by the
end of the week at the latest: But it's all just about racking in millions
upon millions of dollars - nothing of substance is taking place-nor will
it for nearly two years. Yet the public plays this game seeming to believe
that 'they' can elect their way out of this quagmire: while they continue
to fail to fulfill their end of this governmental compact. That would be
to demand either answers or consequences for the War on Iraq. Yet no one
is held to account, the facts of
the treason committed on 911 have been exposed to the public-but the
public remains non-plussed.
Bush is guilty on three counts, Cheney on several more, along with General
Meyers, plus Condi, Silverstein and others. Does anyone give a
damn-apparently not! (4)
What outright cowards most Americans have become.
Take
a look at all of it. Jobs gone, Social Security under attack, same with
medical services and prisons-both heavily privatized. The courts the
congress and the administration are all eyeball deep in
the most grievous corruptions and criminal cove-ups ever seen in this
Republic, yet there are no outraged
public displays of any real anger. We have a nation that has no idea of
its own history or of the holocaust that this nation was built upon.
We have a Decider that before he
ran for office had never left the USA, except to wander across the
southern border in pursuit of either drugs or prostitutes-or both. Now
this same evil-seed is trying to tell the world "what He will not
tolerate" in the Middle-East, as if he even knows where those
countries are. He and his thugs have brought back the Inquisition with
their 'new' and hideous tortures of thousands of people-having most
recently invaded Africa to obtain mores subjects for his selective
tortures: again does anyone here give a damn-No of course not,
because that doesn't directly affect them, personally. Now to top this all
off he wants to re-initiate another Crusade in the Middle-east, this time
to crush a people that
commands nearly a third of the world's population: and the most obscene
part in all of this, is that
it's not even for this country: because it's all being done to please
Israel, using US troops and US tax-dollars!
So get out there and wave your
made-in-China 'flags' - scream your insults at anyone that's "Not
Ammarikan" but know this: all your days are numbered because we have
violated all the tenets of
any viable society and of a balanced world: We can no longer be successful
until we rid ourselves of the
parasites that we have allowed to steal all we care about. Ask yourself during your next
break from the games - what the hell have you done about any
of this shit - lately! If the answer is less than 'anything' then
have another slice; and chase
it all down with more beer: because for you it's all nearly over...
IF the American public spent
about one tenth of the time they spend on games and public
illusions: to just glance at politics, they'd know something about the
conditions that we must now
all face: but then people might have to leave the safety of their bubbles,
and confront the truth that's
been growing like Jack's proverbial-beanstalk ever since the 'Cold War'
ended. Well the good news is they won't ever have to explain to their
children or grand children
what really happened in 2007. Because they will no longer have the luxury
of having those descendents
to explain to. Oh and for those who still believe that 'the
glass' is really half-full: you might want to look again, as there is
only about one-eighth of the
content left in that mystical glass that measures all that is left of
time!
